The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health unit says non-eligible residents are using other people’s codes to book COVID-19 vaccination appointments.
The health unit has made a point to say that people will be turned away from vaccination clinics if they try to use someone else’s booking codes.
Furthermore, the health unit says trying to jump the queue in this way is disruptive, strains already stretched health-care resources and might lead to taking away appointment slots from those who need them most.
